The Rolex Explorer M214270 model is produced by Clean Factory with a solid 904L stainless steel case, 39 mm diameter and a high-precision automatic Super Clone movement architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.

Clean Explorer first generation m124270/36 mm, 2021 new model: Since Clean released the first generation Explorer, it has been declared that only Clean does the best job for those who want to buy the top-level Explorer version in the market.

Clean Explorer first generation m214270/39 mm, 2006 vintage: Let's get back to that Explorer first generation m214270. The material used throughout the watch is 904L stainless steel, the same material as the Oyster steel used in the original. In the recovery of the exterior material, including some detail processing...

Dial and Hand Details

Time display on the dial with stick hour markers and 369 numerals. Since the large number markings are generally more noticeable on the Explorer, many watch lovers call it the 369 style. Like the picture below.

Let's first compare these three number signatures, the overall pattern, and the effect of the lume fill. Clean Explorer achieved exactly the same effect; There are no flaws, whether it is size or gap distance.

Analyzing it from the large factory level and comparing it with the poor quality versions of other factories, it turns out that this is a replica watch on a completely different level. It seems like now whenever Clean releases a new Rolex replica, the product is basically a must-snatch; Otherwise, you have to buy the product in stock by paying the price difference, or if it is not available, you have to wait for the product. The main reason for this is that everyone is very confident in Clean crafting and also dependent on it. After all, it is known that the craftsmanship associated with Clean has reached a level completely close to that of the original. When it comes to price, when there is quality assurance, people naturally do not think about whether it is expensive or cheap. Ultimately, the more money, the more goods.

Case and Body Workmanship

The Clean first generation Explorer has essentially no deviations in the recovery of the chassis form. The brushed marks on the case surface extend to the strap; smooth and fluid.

The black dial is the place that best reveals whether the detail processing has achieved the same effect compared to the original. We will also tell watch lovers the differences between the 36 mm Explorer and the 39 mm.

There is no color difference on the black dial produced by Clean Explorer; The general fatty tissue dominance is also quite good. In my opinion, the marker and number details of the inner ring bezel are the best made part.

Each alignment position on stick hour markers is standard. In the metal edge form, Clean first generation Explorer has processed round corners; The downward bow slope of the long stick form is exactly the same as the original.

The general marking comparison of 36 mm and 39 mm is also almost the same, there is no change. The difference between the new model and the old model is the same, including the inverted triangle part.

The second part of the dial comparison is the comparison of the hour and minute hands with the original. Since this original Explorer has been around for quite some time, the tint has aged a bit. So we only need to compare the general form. Produced with the same material and with the lume filling placed inside, Clean first generation Explorer has made corrections; The fineness of the hour and minute hands can completely rival the original ones.

Also, a topic that watch lovers are curious about: is the center shaft the same? The answer is exactly the same. I believe many factories cannot do this. The center shaft not only has high recovery; Keeping the carving shape of the center point and the protrusion form an exact replica of the original is something that really requires workmanship. Thanks to the comparison, it can be seen that Clean's workmanship is quite good.

The third part compared is the oil-printed dial surface. When Clean Explorer is compared to the original dial surface, it is impossible to distinguish the real from the fake in the real-replica comparison made through the photo. Font size and spacing remain exactly the same; There is no deviation in terms of overall feel and visual perception, especially on the printing part of the crown LOGO.

You can see that the size of the signs crown LOGO and English font are equal and consistent; Especially the comparison of the letter R is an exact replica. This is one of the points that best demonstrates the importance of detail processing.

There is no suspicion of burrs or roughness on the dial surface. The new model 36 mm Explorer has the EXPLORER text added to the dial surface, while the old version 39 mm has this EXPLORER English text placed at the 6 position; the new model puts it on top of the center shaft.

Both of them have the phrase Explorer in English. Thanks to this comparison, we can understand the difference between the new model and the old model. However, there are no problems with either detail processing.

Then the whole dial can reach about 98 percent level compared with the original dial; basically no deviation. Clean Explorer has all the necessary details; All are fine, including the sapphire glass and the laser LOGO at position 6. Now the mechanism comparison. The original of the new model 36 mm Explorer carries the latest 32 series 3230 movement.

The reflection angle of the case side surface is smooth, with no interruptions in the steel. Especially the side part is the place that best reveals the workmanship of a factory; because the case form not only regains the same spring slope, but also thickness control requires a certain mastery.

The cut surface of the bezel frame made of oyster steel has been polished; The overall bezel form remains the same as the original. This bezel is very similar to the Oyster bezel!

The Rolex crown LOGO is engraved on the crown crown; There is no problem in terms of general recovery.

Strap, Buckle and Comfort

The details of the markings and inscriptions on the crown crown are not visible at all after the strap is attached; so you don't have to worry about whether it's done well or not.

Movement and Caliber Performance

You can see the small crown printed at position 6; This shows that the watch carries a 32 series movement or a 3235 or 3285 movement. The old model Explorer m214270 does not have the small crown print; Therefore, it is different from the mechanism of the new model in terms of mechanism. The new model carries the 3230 movement, while the old model 39 mm carries the 3132 movement, which is synchronized with the original. It is also one of the very stable mechanisms.

That's pretty much it for the comparison of the entire watch. From comparing with the original to comparing with the new model Explorer, it's all Clean Explorer work; In terms of recovery, both the new model and the old model can reach 98 percent. Whether it is detail processing or workmanship and materials, the high-level workmanship is clearly visible.

Whether you choose the new model or the old model depends on the size of your own wrist. Those with slightly thin wrists should choose 36 mm, and those with thick wrists should choose 39 mm. Other than that, there is basically no problem. Yes, that's the end of this section's review of Clean Explorer compared to the original.

I hope this article will be useful to you. More detailed disassembly, live-action review and real-replica comparison will be shared in the future.
